THE GOOD:
Great Graphics, great sound, great story, laughable main enemy, interesting spells.

THE BAD:
Moonglow! Your character's voice, the dialogue, boarding the ship.

SUMMARY:
First of all let me correct a common mistake. This game does not need a monster PC to play! Wen I first played it all I had was a 166 with 32Mb of EDO Ram, and a VooDoo1 4Mb graphics card and it ran fine, except when I got to Moonglow (Which is why it is in the bad list), even though I have since upgraded it still crawls there. Just remember to turn Mip-Mapping of, and all the options down and you will get good performance on slower machines.

Why is boarding the ship in the bad? Well, if you are in the water with heavy armour on, you sink. If you have just surfaced after a dive and click on this ship to board, but have just gone under the surface. When you are in the overhead view you still lose air from your lungs.

THE GOOD:
Great graphics, developed storyline (that continues with the whole Ultima series). Huge superdetailed world, great RPG action.

THE BAD:
Gameplay can be a little stilted and linear, sometimes like the old Sierra games (find the one discolored brick to click on).

SUMMARY:
After running the patches, the bugs are virtually eliminated. This game does require a heafty system. Ive got an 800 Mhz PC w/32MB GeForce and its still not maxed out on the performance settings. A long game, filled with great voices (except the player's). More realistic than other RPGs like BG2 Diablo. Similar graphics as Sacrifice, but more detailed and its a freaking huge world.
